The C160 universal process indicator was launched in 1997. It enabled indication of a single process variable and its associated totalizer value on a high-visibility, 6 digit LED display in a field mounted enclosure. It also featured a 4 to 20 mA retransmission and alarm relay output as standard with the option to add further relay outputs and RS485 communications to suit your applications.
In September 2015, the C160 was superseded by the ControlMaster CMF160 field mounted universal process indicator. The CMF160 uses ABB’s common instrumentation platform HMI and features a new, full color TFT display enabling both the PV and associated totalizers to be displayed simultaneously in a single operator view. The CMF160 also includes a frequency input for direct high accuracy connection to electromagnetic flow meters.
